Wide bandwidth, high resolution AWGs
Measurement needs have driven the development of high-bandwidth AWGs, but they lacked accuracy and high resolution. Until now, AWG technology forced serious trade-offs between either high resolution or wide bandwidth. With the new Keysight M8190A 12 GSa/s arbitrary waveform generator, you will get both in one instrument!

Stay ahead with newest technology
Use this new technology to solve your testing challenges. Whether they include digital modulation or noise-power ratio measurement for WiGig, radar and satellite applications or just a multi-level signal, an arbitrary waveform generator is an excellent choice. The flexibility ensures straightforward adoption of new distortion requirements, allowing you to easily mimic analog real world imperfections.
